Plan Excursion
To Los Angeles
For Loyola Game
<s>-
Over Two Hundred in
Party of Don Rooters:
Forecast of
Muller
Plans for the special excursion to
the USF-Loyola game are being
rapidly whipped into shape by Bill
Muller, student body president, who
states that the clash on October 31
will have two hundred Don rooters
in attendance.
Two special trains will carry the
USF followers to Los Angeles. The
main special, which will accommodate the majority of the students,
will leave the station at Third and
Townsend at 6:15 o'clock Friday
evening, October 29. It will arrive in
Los Angeles at 8 o'clock Saturday
morning.
Another Train
Another train, to carry alumni
and students who must work on
Saturday, will leave that evening
at 6:15 o'clock and arrive in Glen-
dale at 7:33 o'clock Sunday.
Literature about the trip will soon
be circulated and tickets placed on
sale by the committee, composed of
Bill Muller, Jack Horgan, Tom
Casey and John Swanson.
Headquarters for the excursionists
will be the Rosslyn Hotel, the second
largest in Los Angeles, located at
Fifth and Main streets. The hotel
will furnish free transportation from
the depot and back. Special rates,
from one dollar up, will be in effect.
Prices of meals will be unusually low,
said Muller.
Cost for the round trip will be
$10.45, with a charge of $1.50 for a
lower berth and SI.20 for an upper.
Special Bus
A special bus will carry rooters
from the hotel to the Gilmore Stadium and return for one dollar.
Rooters who leave on Friday night
will also be able to witness the California-UCLA game on Saturday if
they wish.
The band will travel with the
rooters on the first special and on
the return trip as well. The team
may leave with the second special.
Both trains will be combined for
the return trip on Sunday night at
6:05 o'clock, which will arrive in
San Francisco Monday morning
at 7:50 o'clock. Rooters will be
able to rest on Monday as it is All-
Saints Day, a holiday.
' All arrangements for the excursion are being handled by the student body, under the direction of Bill
Muller. He reports that widespread
interest has been taken in the venture, which promises to surpass by
far the excursion of last year.
Everything possible has been done
by the committee, states Muller, to
ensure a trip that will be economical
srid enjoyable, one that will have a
large turnout of rooters to back the
team.

Approve
Nite School
Constitution
Approval of a new constitution for
the student body of the evening division of the University of San Francisco was given in an overwhelming
vote, it was announced last week by
the executive council of the student
body.
Balloting was conducted by the administrative officers all last week.
Results of the final certified tally revealed that 138 voted in favor of the
constitution. Eight opposed it.
Three Years' Effort
"This marks the successful culmination of three years' effort to
provide a satisfactory constitution
to suit the peculiar needs of our
student body. The administration
anticipates a far less onerous task
in conducting our affairs, now that
the duties and powers of every officer have been greatly clarified,"
said Bernard Ward, president of
the night school student body.
For several years the night school
has been operating under a de facto
constitution, while a permanent
group of students, representing the
several divisions of the school, endeavored to formulate a new governing instrument.
Defer Submission
Completion of the committee's
work was announced last spring, but
it was decided to defer submission of
the document until this semester.
Mark Paul, John Angelani, Roland
Kruger, Bernard Ward, Eugene
Raggett and George Helmer, as well
as several others, helped in the drafting of the newly adopted constitution.
Exercise Powers
First exercise of powers, delegated
by the new governing vehicle, was
made by the executive board at the
initial meeting last week.
Owing to the withdrawal from
school of Al O'Dea, secretary-elect,
and Nat Andriotti, sergeant-at-arms,
the board was forced to appoint new
officers to fill the vacancies.
Elected without opposition were
Gene Austin, secretary, and Kevin
Lowe, sergeant-at-arms. Austin is
a commerce student. Lowe is in
the pre-legal division.
By FRANK COURTNEY
Mr. Willis Camp, a representative
of the United Air Lines, delivered a
lecture on "Air Transportation" last
Wednesday at noon in Room B-l to
the economic students of the school.
The talk was the third of a series of
lectures that are being presented by
Kappa Alpha Phi, the lower division
economic honor society.
"Air transportation of the present
day is a far cry from the first air mail
route that was opened up between
New York and San Francisco back
in 1918," asserted Mr. Camp in opening his discourse.
Open in 1926
"The first commercial route was
opened in 1926, and in that year
6,000 passengers rode in United
Airline planes. This year approximately 1,750,000 passengers will
utilize the United Airlines Service. Last month the United Air
Lines had the greatest month in
its history, flying 15,000,000 passenger miles.
"The Douglas planes are the
latest type of transport in the
world," continued Mr. Camp.
"There are three types of Douglas
planes, namely, the twenty-one passenger plane, which runs only along
the coast; the Sleeper, which has
fourteen berths and runs exclusively
at night, and the Sky Lounge, which
has fourteen adjustable seats and is
used for daylight transcontinental
travel."
Gives Statistics
Mr. Camp then gave a few statistics concerning the qualities of the
Douglas plane.
"Being sixty-five feet in length,
the plane has a wing spread of
ninety-five feet. It has two power
plants of fourteen cylinders, each
having 1,150 horsepower. Other
features are the constant speed propellers, the retractable landing gear,
which increases the speed of the
plane twenty miles per hour, and the
wing flips, that retard the speed on
landing," said Mr. Camp.
"The planes are equipped with
two-way radios, by which they can
either send or receive. They have
three radios, one for the beam, one
for communication with the ground,
and an auxiliary radio in case one of
the others fails."
At the conclusion of the lecture
Mr. Camp answered questions regarding the subject matter of the
discourse.
PLAN ECONOMIC GROUP
Dexter Leads Students; Meeting Yesterday
A meeting of upper division of
economic students was held yesterday. The purpose of the meeting was
for the organization of an economic
group of junior and senior students.
Three junior and three senior
students met together with Mr.
Gregory Dexter, accounting instructor, who will be the adviser
for the group.
Norton Herold, past president of
Kappa Alpha Phi, lower division
economic society, and Eugene Phillips, another member of the group,
are the guiding figures in the move
for the establishment of the honor
society.
Similar Move
Under the direction of Dr. Stephen
Kuhnle, a member of the economics
department, a similar movement was
started in September, 1935. Tom
Korn was president of the first
group, which was named Alpha Beta
Epsilon. Formerly, the group was
called Tau Delta Beta. Alpha Beta
Epsilon did not continue to exist.
Unnamed
However, the attempt on the part
of the group here now means the
reestablishment of the former economic group, although it has not
been decided whether to use the same
name.
The purpose of yesterday's meeting was for the formation of a constitution. A definite announcement on
the progress made so far will be
given next week.
SHELLER HERE MONDAY
Marimba Artist Makes Appearance
Audrey Sheller, foremost American marimba artist, will be presented
at a student assembly next Monday
morning at 11 o'clock.
A charge of fifteen cents is being
made. Those who desire to attend
the assembly will be excused from 11
o'clock classes, it was said.
Miss Sheller has played under the
baton of Rudolph Ganz, internationally known concert pianist, conductor, composer and artist teacher,
former conductor of the St. Louis
Symphony Orchestra, and now director of the Chicago Musical College. Ganz highly complimented
Miss Sheller's work and graciously
presented her with a letter of recommendation.
Native Californian
Miss Sheller is a native Californian. She was tympanist with
the San Jose State College Sym
phony Orchestra and also with the
Symphonic Band.
This is the second of a series of
assemblies being held for the student
body. Previously Mr. Alonso was
presented in a lecture on Spain.
Other leaders in arts, science, educational and musical fields will be presented at later assemblies.
Miss Sheller has been reported as
having art extensive repertoire. She
has been accepted as a pupil by Ross
Peterson, member of the National
Broadcasting Company staff, San
Francisco.
Miss Sheller has played on several programs. Listed are the Western Music Conference, San Diego
Exposition, Diamond Jubilee of San
Jose State College, San Juan Bap-
tista Mission Pageant, Sacramento
State Fair, Kiwanis Clubs and Rotary Clubs.
Today
Is Quarterly
Deadline
Today is deadline for The Quarterly!
All manuscripts must be handed
into the editorial board today if they
are to receive consideration for the
Fall issue of the University literary
publication, it was said today. The
board consists of John Downes,
Louis Peradotto and Jack Horgan.
Kappa Lambda Sigma, literary society, which supervises publication,
has been judging entries and planning the makeup for several weeks.
Season Theme
Downes, who is chairman, has
announced that the issues of the
magazine will be dated according
to seasons. The cover will be copper-colored. Publication will be
early in November.
Writing in The Quarterly consists
of student, alumni and faculty effort
and will contain both prose and
poetry.
Best Ever
Stated Downes: "We believe that
this term's magazine will be one
of the best we have ever put out.
Interest has been very gratifying and
we hope to justify the response with
quality of the book we put out."
A divergence from the general
custom of the editing is the plan of
inserting filler matter after the longer
articles. These will be. short paragraphs and quotations.
Cold Light Talk
Given by Vogel
Lecture Sponsored by
Bio Chem Club
Cold light and its production in
nature as well as in the laboratory
was the subject of discussion at the
meeting of the Bio Chem Club last
week. Marcel Vogel, chemistry student, was the lecturer.
"Light is usually produced along
with heat. For instance, the ordinary electric light bulb emits light
because a tungsten filament is
heated to incandescence by passage
of the electricity. Cold light is
light which is not accompanied by
heat," said Vogel.
Frequently Observed
Vogel pointed out that this phenomenon is observed frequently in
nature. The common example is the
glow-worm and firefly. The production of cold light by the firefly was
described fully.
The Photogenic cells are located
on the ventral surface and the
amount and intensity of the light are
under direct control of the firefly,
said Vogel.
Second Portion
The second portion of the lecture
was devoted to a description and
demonstration of the production of
cold light by chemical means. By
mixing suitable reagents in the darkened room Vogel was able to cause
the emission of a brilliant blue light
strong enough that all were able to
see the experimenter.
At the conclusion of the experiments the speaker answered questions of those in the audience.
Glee Appears
On KPO Sunday
First public appearance of the
Glee Club this semester will be next
Sunday evening, 7 o'clock, when it
will be featured in a broadcast over
radio station KPO. Members will
sing on the "Hawthorne House," a
regular commercial show.
Under the direction of Angelo
Fusco, college musical director, rehearsals have been conducted all
this week to thoroughly familiarize
the men with the selections they will
sing. He had been assisted by L.
Havorka, Glee Club leader.
Havorka hailed this program as
an opening which will greatly aid
the USF gleemen in obtaining further broadcasts on other programs.
He pointed out that Stanford University has gained a wide reputation
for the programs which the Glee
Club of that school has given
throughout California and on the
radio.
Dance, Finance
Get Attention
Of Executives
International Relations,
Annual, Debaters
Seek Money
Financial matters, in addition to a
revolutionary proposal governing
the regulation of dances, occupied
the attention of the executive "on>
mittee at its meeting Tuesday noon.
In answer to the International Relations Club request for a $30 appropriation to cover the cost of sending delegates to the coming state
convention at Mills College, the
finance committee stated that $18
would be allotted to the club. The
committee felt that this sum would
be sufficient to send enough members, but a motion was made that
the request be considered for another week. It was defeated.
Downes Appears
Representing the varsity debate
team, John Downes asked for an
allotment of $60 to cover the costs
of the debaters for the semester. He
stated that this is a smaller sum
than that of last year, so the number of debates will necessarily have
to be cut down, although as many
as possible will be held.
President Muller announced that
Audrey Sheller, noted marimba
player, had been engaged to play
this morning. He said that there
would be an admission charge of 15
cents to cover the expenses for the
engagement, amounting to $50, and,
providing there is a large attendance, it will give the student body a
possible profit of $20.
DiVita Requests
Viero DiVita requested a loan
of $30 to cover the initial costs of
the annual. He was referred to
the finance committee, which will
make a report next week.
A request for money to send Bob
Horner, yell leader, to the Loyola
game, was also referred to the
finance committee.
Committee members were asked
to cooperate in seeing that there is
a good student representation at the
studios of radio station KYA tomorrow afternoon to participate in the
reproduction of the USF game with
Montana.
Declaring that the present methods of controlling student dances
have been proved inefficient, Charles
Breen outlined a proposal for regulating dances which, he believes,
will lead to better and more exclusive USF dances.
His idea is based upon a priority control system, consisting of
an index file of all those eligible for
school dances. This arrangement
would permit of absolute control
over all students, alumni, and
friends who wish to go to the
dances.
Index Set-Up
A mailing list of these people
would be built up, and would provide that outsiders have student
guarantors in order to be included
in the index, which will list the
names, addresses, affiliations, and
qualifications of all eligible dance
patrons.
It was suggested that those students who work on the file should
get remuneration of some sort for
their labor, probably in the form of
bids, said Breen.
Laurie O'Toole proposed a committee be appointed to consider the
feasibility of this plan. Vice-President Horgan chose the following to
discuss the matter and report on it
next Tuesday: Harry Duff, chairman; Charles Breen, Laurie O'Toole
and Tully Simoni.
Spanish Club Meets
Next Thursday Noon
Members of the Don Quixote
Club presented half-time entertainment at the Santa Clara game depicting the subjugation of the Bronco
by the valiant Dons. In it were Sal-
vado Guglielmino, George Corona,
Harry Stark, Jack Monroe and
Henry Garciadiego.
A meeting is scheduled for next
Thursday at noon in Room B-7. At
that time plans will be discussed for
the Spanish play which the club has
been considering for several weeks.
Some other organization devoted to
foreign affairs may be asked to cooperate in this event. Rogariano
Arias will speak to the club in the
near future on Cervantes literature.
TAKE YOUR CHOICE

Students have a choice in entertainment this evening.
"Men Must Fight" will be presented for the last time in

Club. The question to be debated
will be: "Resolved, That the State
of California should adopt the unicameral legislature system."
Last Monday's meeting was the
scene of a discussion of the question
of whether or not another world war
was imminent. In attendance were
Jack Whelan, Tom Duff, Jack
O'Brien, Bob Wardell, Bernard
Cief, and Richard Fenton. Frank
Silver, S. J., urged that members be
more regular in their attendance at
the meetings.
O'ROURKE TO SPEAK
Local Relations Head to Lead Group
In an announcement made public
yesterday by Owen Brady, of the
International Relations Club, it was
revealed that John J. O'Rourke,
president of the campus relations
group, has been invited to conduct a
round table at the regional conference to be held at Mills College on
October 29 and 30.
O'Rourke has been invited to conduct the table on "Why Peace?" by
Miss Eleanor Hadley, president of
the regional conference of International Relations Club of Northern
California.
Most Important
In describing the table Brady
pointed out, "The table on 'Peace'
will be one of the most important
at the conference. In view of the
current situation both abroad and
in the Orient, Peace is a foremost
topic at the moment. Also, in view
of the very distressing International situation it can be readily
appreciated that it will be the most
comprehensive of the tables."
This has been the second time that
the University of San FVancisco has
been honored by being invited to
lead a round table. Last year, Paul
R. Pahnke, then chairman of the
campus group, was invited to lead a
table at the conference held at San
Francisco State College.
No definite information was available from the club as to the number
of members to be sent to the regional
conference as representatives of the
club. It is said, however, that at least
ten or twelve representatives will
make the trip.
As an integral part of the preparation for the conference the USF
group is contacting the clubs at
Dominican College, San Francisco
College for Women, San Francisco
State and St. Mary's College.
"We believe," stated O'Rourke,
"that we are doing a positive service in crystallizing opinion on current affairs before the conference.
In this way people will come to the
conference with definite ideas
rather than with an indefinite or
an indifferent viewpoint."
Sanctuary Notice
The following members of the
Sanctuary Society will serve
these Masses next Sunday:
10:30—William Whitfield and
Patrick Deignan.
12:15—Theodore Wurm and
Thomas Griffin.

Gripping Scenes Portray
Emotions of Family
Caught in Toils
of War
By JACK O'ROURKE
"Men Must Fight," which thrilled
Broadway audiences for almost four
years, is in a fair way toward doing
the same thing in San Francisco, as
capacity audiences storm College
Players' ticket centers for the last
time tonight, in what local critics are
joining New York drama writers in
calling a "play worthy of respect."
Unfolding the story of Secretary
of State Seward's war-shattered family circle, which pits husband against
wife, father against ^on, and turns
aside the peaceful course of Robert
Seward's romance with pretty Peggy
Chase, the battle vehicle swings from
the tense to the comical with pleasing rapidit/
Brady Calm
Tn. Vie role of Secretary of State
Sewaril- Owen Brady is a calm, assured di£'ornat who is committed to
upholding Rational honor, while preferring peace {°r ms wife's sake.
The wife is ably portrayed by dramatic Elma Heitrr.?.n» wno touches
emotional heights in several gripping interludes.
Virginia Kelly enacts tl" role of
Maman, aristocratic head f the
house of Seward, who is relie-'-d of
the stress of diplomacy by the •,. ";}l
of her husband, and who rejoices iv
her ability to say what she pleases,
when she pleases.
Al Maggini and Geraldine Amos
make a well-matched romantic
duo, and the air of light romance
which infiltrates the play, and
gradually changes to grim tragedy,
is well handled by both as a team.
Patriotic Jose
Louis B. Peradotto, whose fame as
a comedian is attracting much of the
crowd which packs the Little Theater for the triple presentation of
"Men Must Fight," takes the part of
patriotic Jose, whose Venezuelan
ancestry does not prevent him from
becoming a white-coated houseboy,
but whose patriotism comes to the
fore when danger threatens.
Jack Horgan and Mary McGowan
make the second romantic team of
the production. Miss McGowan's
attractive evening attire and Horgan's stern military uniform are in
clever contrast, and both make the
most of the opportunities given
them for acting in the suspense-filled
moments which end the second act.
Agnes-Marie Lyman, pleasant-
voiced blond actress, who is James
J. Gill's most recent "discovery,"
pleases as Mrs. Chase, typical shortsighted socialite, mother of Peggy
Chase (Geraldine Amos) in her first
appearance before the footlights.
Jack Mullane also makes his theatrical debut as Danish-accented
butler Albert, who carries candles at
weddings and brings tea for three.
Norman Hammersly continues his
thespic career as Newshawk Seibert.
Hammersly's registration of disgust,
when he learns of what he thinks is
the cowardice of Robert Seward, is
said to be a classical expression of
emotion.
James J. Gill's masterful arrangement of the set for the production
also won critical approval. The subdued lighting and diplomatic dignity
of the Seward living room is being
praised as a "ne plus ultra" by local
reviewers.

Approve
Nite School
Constitution
Approval of a new constitution for
the student body of the evening division of the University of San Francisco was given in an overwhelming
vote, it was announced last week by
the executive council of the student
body.
Balloting was conducted by the administrative officers all last week.
Results of the final certified tally revealed that 138 voted in favor of the
constitution. Eight opposed it.
Three Years' Effort
"This marks the successful culmination of three years' effort to
provide a satisfactory constitution
to suit the peculiar needs of our
student body. The administration
anticipates a far less onerous task
in conducting our affairs, now that
the duties and powers of every officer have been greatly clarified,"
said Bernard Ward, president of
the night school student body.
For several years the night school
has been operating under a de facto
constitution, while a permanent
group of students, representing the
several divisions of the school, endeavored to formulate a new governing instrument.
Defer Submission
Completion of the committee's
work was announced last spring, but
it was decided to defer submission of
the document until this semester.
Mark Paul, John Angelani, Roland
Kruger, Bernard Ward, Eugene
Raggett and George Helmer, as well
as several others, helped in the drafting of the newly adopted constitution.
Exercise Powers
First exercise of powers, delegated
by the new governing vehicle, was
made by the executive board at the
initial meeting last week.
Owing to the withdrawal from
school of Al O'Dea, secretary-elect,
and Nat Andriotti, sergeant-at-arms,
the board was forced to appoint new
officers to fill the vacancies.
Elected without opposition were
Gene Austin, secretary, and Kevin
Lowe, sergeant-at-arms. Austin is
a commerce student. Lowe is in
the pre-legal division.
By FRANK COURTNEY
Mr. Willis Camp, a representative
of the United Air Lines, delivered a
lecture on "Air Transportation" last
Wednesday at noon in Room B-l to
the economic students of the school.
The talk was the third of a series of
lectures that are being presented by
Kappa Alpha Phi, the lower division
economic honor society.
"Air transportation of the present
day is a far cry from the first air mail
route that was opened up between
New York and San Francisco back
in 1918," asserted Mr. Camp in opening his discourse.
Open in 1926
"The first commercial route was
opened in 1926, and in that year
6,000 passengers rode in United
Airline planes. This year approximately 1,750,000 passengers will
utilize the United Airlines Service. Last month the United Air
Lines had the greatest month in
its history, flying 15,000,000 passenger miles.
"The Douglas planes are the
latest type of transport in the
world," continued Mr. Camp.
"There are three types of Douglas
planes, namely, the twenty-one passenger plane, which runs only along
the coast; the Sleeper, which has
fourteen berths and runs exclusively
at night, and the Sky Lounge, which
has fourteen adjustable seats and is
used for daylight transcontinental
travel."
Gives Statistics
Mr. Camp then gave a few statistics concerning the qualities of the
Douglas plane.
"Being sixty-five feet in length,
the plane has a wing spread of
ninety-five feet. It has two power
plants of fourteen cylinders, each
having 1,150 horsepower. Other
features are the constant speed propellers, the retractable landing gear,
which increases the speed of the
plane twenty miles per hour, and the
wing flips, that retard the speed on
landing," said Mr. Camp.
"The planes are equipped with
two-way radios, by which they can
either send or receive. They have
three radios, one for the beam, one
for communication with the ground,
and an auxiliary radio in case one of
the others fails."
At the conclusion of the lecture
Mr. Camp answered questions regarding the subject matter of the
discourse.
PLAN ECONOMIC GROUP
Dexter Leads Students; Meeting Yesterday
A meeting of upper division of
economic students was held yesterday. The purpose of the meeting was
for the organization of an economic
group of junior and senior students.
Three junior and three senior
students met together with Mr.
Gregory Dexter, accounting instructor, who will be the adviser
for the group.
Norton Herold, past president of
Kappa Alpha Phi, lower division
economic society, and Eugene Phillips, another member of the group,
are the guiding figures in the move
for the establishment of the honor
society.
Similar Move
Under the direction of Dr. Stephen
Kuhnle, a member of the economics
department, a similar movement was
started in September, 1935. Tom
Korn was president of the first
group, which was named Alpha Beta
Epsilon. Formerly, the group was
called Tau Delta Beta. Alpha Beta
Epsilon did not continue to exist.
Unnamed
However, the attempt on the part
of the group here now means the
reestablishment of the former economic group, although it has not
been decided whether to use the same
name.
The purpose of yesterday's meeting was for the formation of a constitution. A definite announcement on
the progress made so far will be
given next week.
SHELLER HERE MONDAY
Marimba Artist Makes Appearance
Audrey Sheller, foremost American marimba artist, will be presented
at a student assembly next Monday
morning at 11 o'clock.
A charge of fifteen cents is being
made. Those who desire to attend
the assembly will be excused from 11
o'clock classes, it was said.
Miss Sheller has played under the
baton of Rudolph Ganz, internationally known concert pianist, conductor, composer and artist teacher,
former conductor of the St. Louis
Symphony Orchestra, and now director of the Chicago Musical College. Ganz highly complimented
Miss Sheller's work and graciously
presented her with a letter of recommendation.
Native Californian
Miss Sheller is a native Californian. She was tympanist with
the San Jose State College Sym
phony Orchestra and also with the
Symphonic Band.
This is the second of a series of
assemblies being held for the student
body. Previously Mr. Alonso was
presented in a lecture on Spain.
Other leaders in arts, science, educational and musical fields will be presented at later assemblies.
Miss Sheller has been reported as
having art extensive repertoire. She
has been accepted as a pupil by Ross
Peterson, member of the National
Broadcasting Company staff, San
Francisco.
Miss Sheller has played on several programs. Listed are the Western Music Conference, San Diego
Exposition, Diamond Jubilee of San
Jose State College, San Juan Bap-
tista Mission Pageant, Sacramento
State Fair, Kiwanis Clubs and Rotary Clubs.
Today
Is Quarterly
Deadline
Today is deadline for The Quarterly!
All manuscripts must be handed
into the editorial board today if they
are to receive consideration for the
Fall issue of the University literary
publication, it was said today. The
board consists of John Downes,
Louis Peradotto and Jack Horgan.
Kappa Lambda Sigma, literary society, which supervises publication,
has been judging entries and planning the makeup for several weeks.
Season Theme
Downes, who is chairman, has
announced that the issues of the
magazine will be dated according
to seasons. The cover will be copper-colored. Publication will be
early in November.
Writing in The Quarterly consists
of student, alumni and faculty effort
and will contain both prose and
poetry.
Best Ever
Stated Downes: "We believe that
this term's magazine will be one
of the best we have ever put out.
Interest has been very gratifying and
we hope to justify the response with
quality of the book we put out."
A divergence from the general
custom of the editing is the plan of
inserting filler matter after the longer
articles. These will be. short paragraphs and quotations.
Cold Light Talk
Given by Vogel
Lecture Sponsored by
Bio Chem Club
Cold light and its production in
nature as well as in the laboratory
was the subject of discussion at the
meeting of the Bio Chem Club last
week. Marcel Vogel, chemistry student, was the lecturer.
"Light is usually produced along
with heat. For instance, the ordinary electric light bulb emits light
because a tungsten filament is
heated to incandescence by passage
of the electricity. Cold light is
light which is not accompanied by
heat," said Vogel.
Frequently Observed
Vogel pointed out that this phenomenon is observed frequently in
nature. The common example is the
glow-worm and firefly. The production of cold light by the firefly was
described fully.
The Photogenic cells are located
on the ventral surface and the
amount and intensity of the light are
under direct control of the firefly,
said Vogel.
Second Portion
The second portion of the lecture
was devoted to a description and
demonstration of the production of
cold light by chemical means. By
mixing suitable reagents in the darkened room Vogel was able to cause
the emission of a brilliant blue light
strong enough that all were able to
see the experimenter.
At the conclusion of the experiments the speaker answered questions of those in the audience.
Glee Appears
On KPO Sunday
First public appearance of the
Glee Club this semester will be next
Sunday evening, 7 o'clock, when it
will be featured in a broadcast over
radio station KPO. Members will
sing on the "Hawthorne House," a
regular commercial show.
Under the direction of Angelo
Fusco, college musical director, rehearsals have been conducted all
this week to thoroughly familiarize
the men with the selections they will
sing. He had been assisted by L.
Havorka, Glee Club leader.
Havorka hailed this program as
an opening which will greatly aid
the USF gleemen in obtaining further broadcasts on other programs.
He pointed out that Stanford University has gained a wide reputation
for the programs which the Glee
Club of that school has given
throughout California and on the
radio.
Dance, Finance
Get Attention
Of Executives
International Relations,
Annual, Debaters
Seek Money
Financial matters, in addition to a
revolutionary proposal governing
the regulation of dances, occupied
the attention of the executive "on>
mittee at its meeting Tuesday noon.
In answer to the International Relations Club request for a $30 appropriation to cover the cost of sending delegates to the coming state
convention at Mills College, the
finance committee stated that $18
would be allotted to the club. The
committee felt that this sum would
be sufficient to send enough members, but a motion was made that
the request be considered for another week. It was defeated.
Downes Appears
Representing the varsity debate
team, John Downes asked for an
allotment of $60 to cover the costs
of the debaters for the semester. He
stated that this is a smaller sum
than that of last year, so the number of debates will necessarily have
to be cut down, although as many
as possible will be held.
President Muller announced that
Audrey Sheller, noted marimba
player, had been engaged to play
this morning. He said that there
would be an admission charge of 15
cents to cover the expenses for the
engagement, amounting to $50, and,
providing there is a large attendance, it will give the student body a
possible profit of $20.
DiVita Requests
Viero DiVita requested a loan
of $30 to cover the initial costs of
the annual. He was referred to
the finance committee, which will
make a report next week.
A request for money to send Bob
Horner, yell leader, to the Loyola
game, was also referred to the
finance committee.
Committee members were asked
to cooperate in seeing that there is
a good student representation at the
studios of radio station KYA tomorrow afternoon to participate in the
reproduction of the USF game with
Montana.
Declaring that the present methods of controlling student dances
have been proved inefficient, Charles
Breen outlined a proposal for regulating dances which, he believes,
will lead to better and more exclusive USF dances.
His idea is based upon a priority control system, consisting of
an index file of all those eligible for
school dances. This arrangement
would permit of absolute control
over all students, alumni, and
friends who wish to go to the
dances.
Index Set-Up
A mailing list of these people
would be built up, and would provide that outsiders have student
guarantors in order to be included
in the index, which will list the
names, addresses, affiliations, and
qualifications of all eligible dance
patrons.
It was suggested that those students who work on the file should
get remuneration of some sort for
their labor, probably in the form of
bids, said Breen.
Laurie O'Toole proposed a committee be appointed to consider the
feasibility of this plan. Vice-President Horgan chose the following to
discuss the matter and report on it
next Tuesday: Harry Duff, chairman; Charles Breen, Laurie O'Toole
and Tully Simoni.
Spanish Club Meets
Next Thursday Noon
Members of the Don Quixote
Club presented half-time entertainment at the Santa Clara game depicting the subjugation of the Bronco
by the valiant Dons. In it were Sal-
vado Guglielmino, George Corona,
Harry Stark, Jack Monroe and
Henry Garciadiego.
A meeting is scheduled for next
Thursday at noon in Room B-7. At
that time plans will be discussed for
the Spanish play which the club has
been considering for several weeks.
Some other organization devoted to
foreign affairs may be asked to cooperate in this event. Rogariano
Arias will speak to the club in the
near future on Cervantes literature.
TAKE YOUR CHOICE
TONIGHT, FELLOWS
Students have a choice in entertainment this evening.
"Men Must Fight" will be presented for the last time in
the Little Theater at 8:30 o'clock. The Riverside Junior
College-Frosh football game will be played at Seals

O'ROURKE TO SPEAK
Local Relations Head to Lead Group
In an announcement made public
yesterday by Owen Brady, of the
International Relations Club, it was
revealed that John J. O'Rourke,
president of the campus relations
group, has been invited to conduct a
round table at the regional conference to be held at Mills College on
October 29 and 30.
O'Rourke has been invited to conduct the table on "Why Peace?" by
Miss Eleanor Hadley, president of
the regional conference of International Relations Club of Northern
California.
Most Important
In describing the table Brady
pointed out, "The table on 'Peace'
will be one of the most important
at the conference. In view of the
current situation both abroad and
in the Orient, Peace is a foremost
topic at the moment. Also, in view
of the very distressing International situation it can be readily
appreciated that it will be the most
comprehensive of the tables."
This has been the second time that
the University of San FVancisco has
been honored by being invited to
lead a round table. Last year, Paul
R. Pahnke, then chairman of the
campus group, was invited to lead a
table at the conference held at San
Francisco State College.
No definite information was available from the club as to the number
of members to be sent to the regional
conference as representatives of the
club. It is said, however, that at least
ten or twelve representatives will
make the trip.
As an integral part of the preparation for the conference the USF
group is contacting the clubs at
Dominican College, San Francisco
College for Women, San Francisco
State and St. Mary's College.
"We believe," stated O'Rourke,
"that we are doing a positive service in crystallizing opinion on current affairs before the conference.
In this way people will come to the
conference with definite ideas
rather than with an indefinite or
an indifferent viewpoint."
Sanctuary Notice
The following members of the
Sanctuary Society will serve
these Masses next Sunday:
10:30—William Whitfield and
Patrick Deignan.
12:15—Theodore Wurm and

Gripping Scenes Portray
Emotions of Family
Caught in Toils
of War
By JACK O'ROURKE
"Men Must Fight," which thrilled
Broadway audiences for almost four
years, is in a fair way toward doing
the same thing in San Francisco, as
capacity audiences storm College
Players' ticket centers for the last
time tonight, in what local critics are
joining New York drama writers in
calling a "play worthy of respect."
Unfolding the story of Secretary
of State Seward's war-shattered family circle, which pits husband against
wife, father against ^on, and turns
aside the peaceful course of Robert
Seward's romance with pretty Peggy
Chase, the battle vehicle swings from
the tense to the comical with pleasing rapidit/
Brady Calm
Tn. Vie role of Secretary of State
Sewaril- Owen Brady is a calm, assured di£'ornat who is committed to
upholding Rational honor, while preferring peace {°r ms wife's sake.
The wife is ably portrayed by dramatic Elma Heitrr.?.n» wno touches
emotional heights in several gripping interludes.
Virginia Kelly enacts tl" role of
Maman, aristocratic head f the
house of Seward, who is relie-'-d of
the stress of diplomacy by the •,. ";}l
of her husband, and who rejoices iv
her ability to say what she pleases,
when she pleases.
Al Maggini and Geraldine Amos
make a well-matched romantic
duo, and the air of light romance
which infiltrates the play, and
gradually changes to grim tragedy,
is well handled by both as a team.
Patriotic Jose
Louis B. Peradotto, whose fame as
a comedian is attracting much of the
crowd which packs the Little Theater for the triple presentation of
"Men Must Fight," takes the part of
patriotic Jose, whose Venezuelan
ancestry does not prevent him from
becoming a white-coated houseboy,
but whose patriotism comes to the
fore when danger threatens.
Jack Horgan and Mary McGowan
make the second romantic team of
the production. Miss McGowan's
attractive evening attire and Horgan's stern military uniform are in
clever contrast, and both make the
most of the opportunities given
them for acting in the suspense-filled
moments which end the second act.
Agnes-Marie Lyman, pleasant-
voiced blond actress, who is James
J. Gill's most recent "discovery,"
pleases as Mrs. Chase, typical shortsighted socialite, mother of Peggy
Chase (Geraldine Amos) in her first
appearance before the footlights.
Jack Mullane also makes his theatrical debut as Danish-accented
butler Albert, who carries candles at
weddings and brings tea for three.
Norman Hammersly continues his
thespic career as Newshawk Seibert.
Hammersly's registration of disgust,
when he learns of what he thinks is
the cowardice of Robert Seward, is
said to be a classical expression of
emotion.
James J. Gill's masterful arrangement of the set for the production
also won critical approval. The subdued lighting and diplomatic dignity
of the Seward living room is being
praised as a "ne plus ultra" by local
reviewers.
